Make-A-Wish Convoy Committee, contributing his 37 years of expertise as a driver to the planning efforts of the Convoy. He has also participated as Jelly Bean, the clown at Make-A-Wish fundraising events throughout the year, helping to promote awareness for the event.
“Daryl has been instrumental in the Convoy’s success over the years. It has been truly inspiring to watch how Daryl has been a member of the top ten drivers for 30 straight years and is now striving to raise a lifetime total of $250,000! The funds raised at the Convoy support over 75% of the wishes granted in the Susquehanna Valley each year, and I can say with confidence, Daryl has helped to make that possible.” said Jennifer Davis, President & CEO, Make-A-Wish Philadelphia, Delaware & Susquehanna Valley.
Miller now drives for Cope Salt Company, which generously sponsors drivers who participate in charitable efforts and will donate up to $1500. All of that money goes directly to Make-A-Wish. “It is so great that I work for a company that supports these types of events as long as you put in the work,” said Miller. When asked why he does this year after year, he said, “It’s a reality check to see how blessed I have been in my life when I see these kids that have spent so much time in the hospital, it really makes you appreciate what you have.” He went on to say that something as little as taking a child for a ride in the truck means so much to them and if he can in some way make a difference, he will continue to do so.
